3d printing an air intake this weekend to replace my Injen intake. It's nice, but looks a bit out of place in the engine bay. The one I'm printing puts the intake in front of the radiator for a true cold air intake.

My Prius lost 11.3 Kgs today - no modifications just a clean. If your car has ever lived on rough roads, gravel and dust could be worth a look! I can't believe these panels did not colapse with that weight & that its had never been noticed at service time. I just bought the car to replace a Porsche Cayenne. The Prius has had a rough life, looking to get windows tinted this week, then replacement darker led rear lights (non facelift model) & some alloy wheels at some stage.

Plasti-dipped all 6 emblems (front/back Toyota, L/R "hybrid", Prius, and HSD) and put CF vinyl under the Toyota logos.
LED swapped the whole interior and LED backup lights.
I was thinking of pulling the wheel covers off and just going with the black wheels, but they seemed a little faded underneath - either that or perhaps just some old cleaner residue or something. But I didn't feel like scrubbing wheels as it was crazy hot out, so pulled the wheel covers off and into the garage and plasti-dipped those in black as well.

Went down a rough dirt/gravel road this weekend and got all kinds of messy, so ordered some mud flaps last night. Haha!
Necessary parts for backup camera are on the way.
Planning to do sound deadening, hopefully this week - might swap the stock speakers out as well - haven't decided for sure yet if it's worth it or not (not planning on adding a sub or amp at this point, so not sure if just swapping speakers will make that big of a difference. have to do more research).
Window visors and the rear bumper overlay/protector coming up soon too.

Dang, it looks like someone tried to fill it full of rocks and sink it!

Im sorry to say the prius wont exactly do anything the way a cayenne would do lol.
And how the heck did it get that much dirt on the under panels? like holy crap... Ive fixed that problem, or well... previous dummy owner fixed it for me... he cut the whole engine cover to crap... lol.

What taillights did u think of getting btw? Why not get soem aftermarket? most of them look better then OEM and r usually also cheaper than OEM prius taillights. Most of us here r either using Valenti`s or Prius G Sports tailights.
